What foods is cyanide found in?
Bamboo shoots Cassava Apricot pits almonds different seeds including Cherries.
What is the taste of Potassium cyanide?
Potassium cyanide is the inorganic compound with the formula KCN. This colorless crystalline compound, similar in appearance to sugar, is highly soluble in water. The vast majority of KCN is used in gold mining followed by use in organic synthesis, and electroplating. Smaller applications include jewelry for chemical gilding and buffing. Highly toxic, KCN is odorless but due to hydrolysis, solids emit small amounts of hydrogen cyanide, which smells like bitter almonds (not everyone can smell it-the ability thereof is due to a genetic trait.). It is also used by entomologists as a killing agent in collecting jars, as most insects succumb within seconds, minimizing damage of even the most fragile types.
If a cell is exposed to cyanide most of the cyanide will be found within?
mitochondria
What is the chemical formula for cyanide?
It is normally written CN-. The best way I can explain it here is that there is a triple bond between carbon and nitrogen, and each has one lone pair of electrons, such that it satisfies the octet rule. Since there are only 3 bonds to carbon, and it has a lone pair, the carbon will bear the majority of the negative charge, while the nitrogen will be neutral
Is cyanide found in teflon?
No. Teflon is also called polytetrafluoroethylene, meaning it only consists of carbon and fluorine, whereas the cyanide ion is made of carbon and nitrogen.
What drugs are potassium cyanide found in?
ciggies!
Does touching cyanide with bare hands kill you?
Cyanide salts are easily dissolved in water, such as moisture found on the hands. It can then be absorbed into the body through the skin causing cyanide poisoning. It is better that you do not touch any cyanide salts, such as sodium or potassium cyanide.

Where is Martin Bormann buried?
He was cremated after his remains were found in 1973. The ashes were scattered at an undisclosed location somewhere around or in the Baltic Sea.
Who found the taste of cyanide?
john cyanide
When was Hitler last seen?
Last seen alive on 30th of April 1945. Moments before he bit a capsule of cyanide and shot himself in the head. After that his body was burned by other Nazis as Hitler had ordered that his body was not to fall into enemy hands. Russians found the half-burned corpse, checked it for identity and then buried it. Later, the remains were moved many times. It was in 1970 that Russians cremated his remains and scattered them on the river Elbe.

Is cyanide found in cashew fruit?
Roasted cashews doesn't contain cyanide.
Is cyanide found in laboratories?
Yes, in the form of salts, e.g., sodium cyanide (NaCN) originally used for extracting gold and silver from ores, electroplating baths, fumigating citrus and other fruit trees, ships, railway cars, warehouses, etc., besides of hydrocyanic acid manufacturing and many other cyanides and case hardening of steel. In biochemical and biological labs, is used as a cell metabolism inhibitor.Another salt of cyanide is potassium cyanide (KCN) and its uses are pretty much the same as NaCN.
